#REDIRECT[[Crafting#Manual_crafting]]
Many items can be created manually by hand. [[Manual crafting]] is mainly required in the beginning of a game and is somewhat useful to create small amounts of items later on.
 
[[Manual crafting]] has the advantage that all needed ingrediants are created automatically as long as the required resources are in the inventory. So to create an [[Assembling machine 1]] manually it will be queued till the required [[Iron gear wheel]]s and [[Electronic circuit]]s are crafted automatically, then the [[Assembling machine 1]] gets crafted.
 
The disadvantage of [[manual crafting]] is that all needed resources need to be in the inventory and it takes a long time to craft lots of items. Therefore it is advised to automate as much as possible by using [[Assembling machine]]s for example.
 
Some items can't be manually crafted like the [[Engine unit]] or anything that is produced in [[Chemical plant]]s.
 
Some items can currently only be built manually like the [[Oil refinery]], [[Power armor MK2]] or the [[Rocket defense]] because they use more ingredients than [[Assembling machine]]s can handle. This may be changed in further game versions.
